New Years Eve and an Elliptical Workout

I have to share a few quick things from our weekend before the workout portion of this post.

On Saturday my husband and I were doing a TRX workout, and our son joined in too. He always likes working out with one of us, and I couldn’t be happier about this. I was floored the whole time he was working out with the TRX system. The kid has some amazing body strength and core strength! He was holding planks and doing some advanced moves that I was having a very hard time with, and he did them with ease! A mother has to brag

It is not a normal weekend if some kind of mischief doesn’t occur, so of course, Hank and Tilly had to do something to get themselves into trouble on Sunday. I looked outside after I had let them out 5 minutes earlier to see them both digging a mammoth hole in the frozen ground. When I called them, they nonchalantly turned around, sat down, and gave me that, “What!?! We aren’t doing anything wrong” look. Like they are completely innocent and an asteroid crashed in our backyard and made the hole.

Today is New Year’s Eve and that means that tomorrow is the new year, and there is so much for everyone to look forward to. In my case, I’m looking forward to summer and the disappearance of –20 degree temperatures, snow, and ice. All joking aside, I hope you have a lot to look forward to in 2013 and that you make the most of your year! And, have a great New Year’s Eve!! What are you looking forward to in 2013?

I’ll be starting off my New Year with the For the Love of the Kids Virtual 5K. This will be my first race to kick off my 13 races in 2013!!! What race are you looking forward to this year?
